Comments on: The terror of the anti-liberty movement http://www.bob-owens.com/2012/12/the-terror-of-the-anti-liberty-movement/ The saddest truth in politics is that people get the leaders they deserve Fri, 24 May 2013 13:10:46 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 By: Jack Dumbauld http://www.bob-owens.com/2012/12/the-terror-of-the-anti-liberty-movement/comment-page-1/#comment-39626 Jack Dumbauld Thu, 20 Dec 2012 18:39:04 +0000 http://www.bob-owens.com/?p=2575#comment-39626 The last large scale successful rebellion started with the \”shot heard around the world\”. As I recall, this is when the existing govt. sought to disarm the populace. Does anyone remember the saying regarding not learning from history are in danger of repeating it.

It didn\’t work then and it will not work now. Let me see if I have this right. The current government \”walks\” 2000 assault rifles down to the Sinaloa cartel in Mexico where 60,000 people have been killed in the past 6 years including two Federal Law Enforcement personnel and now they want to ban our semi-auto guns and magazines?

It seems a bit racist that all these \”brown\” people have died largely with the direct or tacit support of the US government and NOW 20 blond haired, blue eyed children get shot by some juvenile nut job and all of a sudden, this same government gets religion and seeks to disarm us now.

May I suggest, that they are as out of touch, naive and arrogant enough to believe that we will accept this to their severe undoing. Sometimes it enlarging the problem makes the solution more evident.

I would rather die standing than grovel on my knees to this illegal criminal enterprise called the US government.

These are mandated by the federal government, and one must ask if the government intended for this by-product of Social Security and Medicare to be major factors in future years (of their passing). These were intended to provide some form of \’safety net\’ for aging seniors, but they may have also be intended (secondarily) to tie the hands of that age group which would have been most likely to \’rebel\’ against an out of control federal government to become so dependent upon that government to make any actual rebellion a moot point.

Some of these blowhard clowns pushing the ‘eliminationist’ theory, have crafted their whole sad careers crying wolf over a revolt which never comes.

If violent overthrow of the government is equivalent to DefCon 1, we are a long long way from DefCon 1. I think the current status is only DefCon 4.

No one has the choice to opt out. To call someone a “parasite” when they participate in a mandatory old age pension scheme is akin to calling someone who was drafted into the military a warmonger.
